Syntax

Set-RDDeploymentGatewayConfiguration
   [-GatewayMode] <GatewayUsage>
   [[-GatewayExternalFqdn] <String>]
   [[-LogonMethod] <GatewayAuthMode>]

Description

The Set-RDDeploymentGatewayConfiguration cmdlet specifies settings for the Remote Desktop Gateway (RD Gateway) server for a Remote Desktop deployment. These settings include whether to use the RD Gateway server, user authentication methods, and other connection and authentication options. The RD Gateway role service enables authorized users to connect to virtual desktops, firstref_server_7 RemoteApp programs, and session-based desktops on an internal corporate network from any Internet-connected device.

Examples

Example 1: Specify settings to configure RD Gateway access

PS C:\> Set-RDDeploymentGatewayConfiguration -GatewayMode Automatic -GatewayExternalFQDN "rdg.contoso.com" -LogonMethod AllowUserToSelectDuringConnection -UseCachedCredentials $True -BypassLocal $True -ConnectionBroker "rdcb.contoso.com"

This command sets these options for the RD Gateway server:

  • Authorized users automatically detect settings from the RD Gateway server.

  • The RD Gateway server has an FQDN of rdcb.contoso.com.

  • Remote users authenticate access when they connect, use RD Gateway access credentials to authenticate access to the remote computer, and bypass the RD Gateway server for local connections.

  • The cmdlet also specifies rdcb.contoso.com as the RD Connection Broker server.
